We talk about the security implications of the latest AI advances – and how the British government should respond to threat. And more importantly, James claims victory in his argument with Martin over AI. Then we speak to the brilliant Jonn Elledge about his new book, 31 Inventions that Built Our World.

James recently wrote about the national security case for building data centres, and how to fix Top Gear.

Martin’s Substack is here, and his YouTube channel is here.
